It's amazing to see how a lot of these were added to halo later on. Engineers, mongoose, the kestrel added in spartan strike, flame thrower. The strike fighter was the precursor to the sabre in reach and even though the drinol and blind wolf were never added to the games they played important roles in books set in the 343 era
Yep and the Drinol/Sharqoui are also mentioned in "Conversations of the Universe" as well which was a little book that came with Halo 2 so they are part of the extended canon like the Blind Wolf.
I remember watching this bonus disk over and over, wishing some of this stuff made it into the game. Of course when the Mongoose was in Halo 3 - Instant Joy.
@DarkNep Yeah it did however make it into Halo 1 PC and Halo 3 and ODST as a weapon (although in Halo 1 PC it wasn't a support class weapon like in Halo 3 alongside the Gun Turret and Plasma Turret).
i would love to see the doozy as a covenant mongoose lol. doubt its gona be in reach though and who knows how long it will be till the next halo game after that.
@1993DJC Yeah I think the Kestrel was what became the Hornet later on. The Drinol could very well be what the Gueta was inspired by (big enemy, only encountered once, has massive claws for smashing things with). So I'd say you probably aren't that far off.
@Yellowcard7777 oh and u can play the halo games on 360 buy getting the original cd or xbox live download :) and the grafix are slightly improved when u play any old game on 360
Why didn't Bungie decide to make a Halo game for just the first one like graphics and it is for the Xbox 360 and It had all the stuff they took out and every gun they took out just to have fun in this game! ;) This would of made like no sence like put no story in it just like a big testing field for people that want to try them so much!
couldn't Bungie do a sequel of halo 1 (mac), CE and halo 2, to the 360, but without changing the way the story unfolds, so it would be the same game but with halo 3 or higher graphic. keep a low res multiplayer in the halo 2 sequel, don't change the Mark V in halo CE and so on. Do the same games, but upgraded to fit the 360.
